Good old Coutts

[carmanmemoranda]

No, I'm on the up. You have no clue.

It's pitiful

 

[denso13]

It's pitiful

It's the same on every thread. Soundbites with no clue.

 

[gant]

Self congratulatory now. Hmm

 

[fillyboy]

They are. There is legislation in place to ensure that happens. Basic bank accounts are open to everyone.

As long as they didn't vote for brexit?

 

[carmanmemoranda]

As long as they didn't vote for brexit?

No. To anyone

 

[denso13]

As long as they didn't vote for brexit?

No. But a millionaire's private bank who makes their customers more millions might pick and choose. Nige wants to be part of the money making club.

Good old Nige.

Good old Nige.

It's a bank, and you're saying they have the right to pick and choose their customers.

Fair enough.

The offending bank and it's parent company have taken an almighty kick in the gonads for for doing just that, and it's not over yet.

 

[motorbiking]

they can do as they like as long as it’s legal as can Nige.

Debanking customers based on legal views isn’t.
Neither is defaming them or breaching data protection law.

This time they got it wrong. In trying to do what they thought was right according to their values they ended up in the wrong. It all backfired and they will end up finding that the compensation they pay will be a tiny fraction of the overall damage they suffer. They are back where they started.

The irony was that NF benefited from several bits of law that were partly sourced from EU directives.

Yes. There are basic bank accounts people are entitled to. Nige wants to be better than than that. Good old Nige.

Good old Nige, plenty of publicity still going.

 

[denso13]

This time they got it wrong.

Yes they put it in writing, that won't happen again. Our organisation hold next to nothing records wise. For FOI requests, if you ain't got it, then tough luck.

PARs go beyond that.

Good old Nige. Going after a bank which it's owner has public funding. Make the public pay!

 

[denso13]

Nige goes beyond that. He wants to be part of the the "club".

 

[motorbiking]

I suspect it’s lost its shine.
